Ingredients: Lemongrass (Cymbopogon citratus) Essential oil. Steam distilled.
The scent of lemongrass oil is vibrant, fresh, and citrusy, with a clean, slightly grassy note. Its aroma is crisp and invigorating, combining the brightness of lemon with earthy, herbal undertones. The scent carries a hint of sweetness, making it both energizing and calming, with a sharpness that refreshes the senses without being overwhelming.
The oil is extracted through steam distillation of fresh or partially dried leaves, capturing its key compound, citral, which gives it its lemony aroma.
How you can use it.
Lemongrass oil is a favorite in aromatherapy, known for relieving stress, promoting relaxation, and uplifting the mood. To create a soothing atmosphere, a few drops of lemongrass oil can be added to a diffuser, combined with lavender or ylang ylang essential oil for deeper relaxation. A relaxing bath can be made by mixing 5-8 drops of lemongrass oil into warm water, combined with Epsom salts to melt away stress.
Lemongrass oil is also widely used in skincare due to its antimicrobial and astringent properties. It can help with acne and oily skin by tightening pores and reducing excess oil. A simple skin toner can be made by diluting 2-3 drops of lemongrass oil in 100ml of distilled water or witch hazel and applying it with a cotton pad.
For those looking for a natural deodorizer, lemongrass oil's fresh scent and antibacterial qualities make it perfect for eliminating odors. A homemade spray can be made by mixing 10 drops of lemongrass oil with water and a tablespoon of baking soda in a spray bottle, effectively freshening up rooms or closets.
For muscle aches and pains, lemongrass oil’s anti-inflammatory properties provide relief when applied topically. To make a soothing massage oil, mix 5 drops of lemongrass oil with a carrier oil like coconut or almond oil, and massage it into sore areas. For a more potent remedy, combine it with other oils like peppermint or eucalyptus to enhance its pain-relieving effects. Whether for stress relief, skincare, or muscle recovery, lemongrass oil remains a versatile and highly valued essential oil across various applications.
